    Curious to what others think about some Streak Survivor rules.

    Most importantly to me, I believe that picks should be allowed to be changed up until game start. Hasn't anyone made a pick & then realized the date was for the next day and then you're stuck without a pick for the current day? I also think if a game is PPD, we should be able to cancel that pick to make another. I love all the contests but think these changes would be a major improvement, Unlike the new site design, which I feel was a disappointment and unnecessary. The old site design was much easier to navigate.

    What's everyone else's opinions?

    I definitely agree with your proposals, but tough to argue, with any chance to win free money. Good Luck...

    I agree with games being postponed that you should be able to make another pick. I don't agree that you should be able to change your pick because you picked the wrong date. I think all picks should be final unless cancelled by rainout. For example if you're in the running for monthly contest and you see what your contenders have picked you could then change your pick based on that knowledge. I don't think that's a good way for the game to be.

    How many times have you come into the contest wanting to take a team(s) and find out you're locked out because too many are on that/those picks? Very frustrating for me. The "lockout" can be in effect from early in the morning. You have to, not only cap the games, BUT, be fast in making your selection. I guess speed kils when it comes to Survivor.

    Also you should be allowed to pick money line underdogs at all times. Why can’t I pick a survivor pick that’s +180 if I feel it?

    Well, there's a catch to that.  You can actually make selections via matchups by clicking on an individual game.  Sometimes a pick is available to choose on the matchup screen that normally doesn't show up on the Streak Survivor one.  Sometimes it'll show up on both, too.  My complaint is that the numbers don't seem to have any real correlation.  Yes, I've read the guidelines.  However, I've seen picks that are available and the public/experts are over 65% or even over 70% or more.  I thought that's supposed to prevent it from being available?  So why am I able to select it?  Conversely, why are there times when a lower percentage of the public and experts are on a side and I still can't pick it?  I thought there's a threshold you can't cross and that triggers a pick from being removed.  I believe that they independently decide if a game might be too good to pick and decide to remove it from their selections.  It's a free game so I suppose it doesn't matter, but I'd like some kind of rationale behind the numbers that supposedly are important for consensus.

    ^^^^  Yes, that's right +sicko, they independently decide if a game is too sure a winner - they remove each from their list of games for SS.

    ^^^^  Yes, that's right +sicko, they independently decide if a game is too sure a winner - they remove each from their list of games for SS.

    I don’t want to allow anyone to change a pick. Handicapping takes a decisive mindset, and if anyone can’t stay on your initial best pick, get a different hobby ??.    Some people (I don’t)  follow others picks, and no one ever wants to come back near game time to see if it’s changed.

    That would be my only gripe as well. Put anything and everything up that is minus 130 or less, including the DOGS.

I love all the contests but think these changes would be a major improvement, Unlike the new site design, which I feel was a disappointment and unnecessary. The old site design was much easier to navigate. What's everyone else's opinions?

    Totally agree. It's no different than a wager at a sportsbook- you check it and if it's wrong- it gets cancelled and your money refunded. If you are going to offer such a game- as monthly or beat the streak- then you should adjust the rules accordingly. The way it stands now- if a game gets rained out or a Tyler Skaggs death occurs-you lose a game. In a monthly game- one pick matters.

    I had a game that got cancelled because of the earthquake on friday. I'm SOL. To me a no play is the same as a loss because it's a most wins contest

    I mean as far as the monthly contest goes and can't stand it when I make a pick and they say I can't play it because of too many players already having it. What's that all about? Seems to be a 1st come 1st served kinda deal.

    I agree with almost everything said here. This contest needs alot of tweaking. It gets frustrating in alot of different ways. I don't think the people running it really give a damn though. We can't really bitch. It is free after all

    The worst thing is we don't get any response from Covers. It seems pointless to suggest anything.

    They should make this a lot easier to take their cash.  Everyone should win at least $1000peace_5

    And what's a real bitch is when you bypass the 5pm pacific games and figure you'll just wait till 7 and make it then only to find out that neither the side or totals are available and end up with no play at all which is the same as a loss because it's a most wins contest. This is ridiculous. What the hell is the purpose of not having all games available untill the game goes off. This is the most frustrating contest I've ever been a part of in at least a dozen different ways. I sure as hell wouldn't pay for a contest like this
